The National Socialist Council Of Nagalim, Provisional Government, Mt. Horeb on 5 October 2026, issued a press release stating that Eastern Nagalim will not accept Indian political influence through Hebron disguised as reconciliation. Any genuine initiative for Naga unity must rest on political integrity and adherence to the fundamental Naga national principle. Any further attempt to breach our peaceful fabric here in Eastern Nagalim will not be tolerated.
The press release issued by Angyo Jacob Tangshang Naga, Political Co-ordinator, Eastern Nagalim, Provisional Government, GPRN stated that “the Provisional Government of NSCN has taken note of the arrival of the Hebron/NSCN led by Maj. Gen.(Retd.) Ramkathing Varah, Collective Leadership Member in Eastern Nagalim under the banner of Peace Campaign and reconciliation between Maj. Gen. (Retd.) Ang Mai, Chairman of (NSCN-K/AM) and Yung Aung, Chairman of (NSCN-K/YA) factions. We are subjecting to close scrutiny of the movements and political activities in Eastern Nagalim and beyond, and we regard its claim to come as a messenger of peace and Naga Unity with deep political scepticism.
“The credibility of the Hebron to speak for the Naga political question is fundamentally in question. Its competencies submitted on the 2nd January, 2020 represent a departure from the established Naga political principle and expose the extent to which its political position has diverged from the broader Nagas aspiration. Peace cannot be invoked as a pretext for their expansion nor can unity be preached by those whose own political conduct has contributed to division within the Naga national movement. No group possesses the political mandate to redefine the Naga national position for its own Convenience and the Naga political issue cannot be reduced to an arrangement acceptable to New Delhi, nor can the Naga national principle cannot be subordinated to constitutional limitations imposed by India.
“Most grave and still unresolved is the killing of our four cadres Maj. Sochipem Phungshok, Sgt. Major Zairei, Sgt. Bahnle Ahlahpyah and Sgt. Thansomi Vashi at Hongpei village on 28th March, 2026. The Hebron/NSCN has yet to provide a satisfactory explanation for these deaths. Until such serious matters are addressed, its sudden projection of itself as a harbinger of peace and unity will inevitably be viewed with suspicion.
“We therefore caution all Naga national workers and brothers in arms across different camps to remain vigilant against attempts to exploit the language of peace and reconciliation for their advantage. Eastern Nagalim is not a political vacuum nor is it a territory where any organisation can unilaterally establish authority or dictate terms under the guise of peace.
“Let it be understood clearly: Eastern Nagalim will not accept Indian political influence through Hebron disguised as reconciliation. Any genuine initiative for Naga unity must rest on political integrity and adherence to the fundamental Naga national principle. Any further attempt to breach our peaceful fabric here in Eastern Nagalim will not be tolerated” added the press release issued by Angyo Jacob Tangshang Naga, Political Co-ordinator, Eastern Nagalim, Provisional Government, GPRN
